About Me
A dynamic and creative Architectural Designer with a skill for developing detailed and unique designs and ensuring project requirements are met. I have a strong expertise in computerized drafting and modeling to create visual images for construction documents and client presentations. My experience spans between urban infill and multi-family housing, mixed-use, single-family homes, and tenant improvements. I’m eager to continue to grow within my career and build upon the foundational skills I have gained. I’m always looking for new tools to learn, and thrive in problem-solving in both individual and collaborative work environments. I believe great design has the power to bring people together and build lasting, resilient communities.

Status of project: Under construction
Tools used: AutoCAD
Roles: SD, DD, CD, CA
Our design approach for a new three-story, multi-family building with a total of twelve units centered on introducing modern, sustainable housing. While we focused on preserving the existing historic home on site, this also allowed us to maintain the character and rhythm of the existing street-scape.
The resulting design allows for contemporary feel with sensitivity, integrating new construction behind the existing home. This approach allows for increased housing density while still honoring the neighborhood’s architectural heritage and maintaining a thoughtful blend of preservation and urban infill development.
Niima Outpost

Date: 2024
Status of project: Completed
Tools used: Procore, Archicad, BIMx
Roles: Assistant Superintendent
Niima Outpost is San Diego’s first hybrid mass timber residential building. Built on a compact site, the project uses innovative design and environmentally responsible methods to deliver 55 unique loft apartments in North Park’s growing urban core.
The building features a hybrid structure that combines cross-laminated timber (CLT) floor and roof panels with traditional stick-frame walls. This approach reduces embodied carbon compared to concrete and steel. Exposed mass timber in select interiors creates a warm, natural atmosphere and showcases sustainable materials.
Vista Place
Single-Family | San Diego, CA | 1,902 SF | Alex Miller Architects
Specifications
Area of site: 8,450 SF
Date: 2024
Status of project: Under construction
Tools used: AutoCAD
Roles: SD, DD, CD
The site is located in a historic district in the North Park neighborhood of San Diego, CA. Working directly with the client from Schematic Design, we were able to thoughtfully respond with a design that would incorporate key Craftsman architectural features that are seen throughout the neighborhood. One of the main goals for the client was to create a new space to age-in-place for their parents. The connectivity to all units on the site was a necessity.
A great client/architect relationship enabled us to work together to come up with a design that modernizes livability for their future without compromising the historic character of the existing house.
